摘要:Three trends affecting language teaching in the United States -- a growing awareness and application of the Standards for Foreign Language Learning (2006), an increase in the number of people who speak non-English languages at home, and a greater emphasis on service learning in secondary and postsecondary education -- have contributed to a proliferation of service learning programs in which college students learning a "foreign" language earn credits while engaging in a service project in a community of speakers of the target language. Leeman highlights "a need for critical analysis of the underlying assumptions and the ideological as well as the material impact of such programs." Adapted from the source document
